Correct Option: A


The hepatic portal vein is located between the:-

  1. hepatic vein and the vena cava

  2. small intestine and the liver

  3. mouth and the stomach

  4. pancreas and the small intestine

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Measuring approximately 8 cm (3 inches) in adults, the portal vein is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen, originating behind the neck of the pancreas. In most individuals, the portal vein is formed by the union of the superior mesenteric vein and the splenic vein

So, the correct answer is 'small intestine and the liver'

Correct Option: A

The circulatory system of a rabbit differs from that of a frog in that there

  1. Renal portal system in rabbit

  2. Hepatic portal system in rabbit

  3. Posterior vena cava in rabbit

  4. Dorsal aorta in rabbit

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:
  • The renal portal system is absent in the rabbit. The hepatic portal system is present in rabbit and it consists of a hepatic portal vein ventral to the post caval vein. It enters into the liver, divides into a number of branches to supply to various lobes of the liver.
  • In the rabbit, the blood from different organs of the body is collected by two superior vena cavae and a posterior vena cava which open separately into the right auricle.
  • In Frog, the blood from different organs of the body is collected by two precavals and one post caval which unite together to form a sinus venosus that in turn opens into the right auricle.

So, the correct answer is 'Posterior vena cava in rabbit'.

Which one is not the use of hepatic portal system?

  1. To convert carbohydrate into glycogen.

  2. To separate ammonia.

  3. To kill bacteria.

  4. To convert protein into carbohydrate.

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The hepatic portal system is the system of blood vessels that connect the gastrointestinal system and the liver. The nutrients digested by the intestines are transported to the liver, where the excess of carbohydrates is converted into glycogen. The amino acids are broken down and ammonia is released, which is soon converted to urea through the Ornithine cycle. The liver has Kupffer cells that kill the bacteria before the nutrients move out to the different organs of the body.


Hence, the correct answer is 'To convert proteins into carbohydrates'

Which of the following pairs are correctly matched?
A. Crocodile 4-chambered heart
B. Sea Urchin Parapodia
C. Obelia Metagenesis
D. Lemur Thecodont

hepatic portal system components of the circulatory system transport in animals the circulatory system biology

  1. Only A and B

  2. A, C and D

  3. B, C and D

  4. Only A and D

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • Reptiles have two chambered heart accept crocodiles which have four chambered heart.
  • In obilia alternation of generation is called metagenesis in which an asezual polyploid generation appears to alternate regularly with a sexual medusoid generation.
  • Thecodont dentition is found in mammals.
  • So, (D) is the correct answer.
